Sam's Transpyrenees Ultra

Transpyrenees · 24 June 2023
On June 24th I will be riding out from Llançà situated in the North East region of Catalonia, Spain with the aim of riding all the way across to the Basque City of San Sebastián on the Northern Coast of Spain near the border with France.
The Route will be 1,080 Km long which is the equivalent of riding from London to Salzberg, Austria (as the crow flies). That is not the only part of this challenge, as you know the Pyrenees are not known for being a flat landscape so I will be going through the highs and lows that come with them. There is 25,000m of vertical elevation to cover which is the equivalent of nearly three full ascents of Mt Everest.
This ride is fully unsupported and will be a true physical but more importantly mental challenge. With the aim to complete this before the cut off on 30th June @ 8pm.
On a global scale Movember is addressing some of the biggest health issues which are facing men, whether that be; prostate cancer, testicular cancer, mental health and suicide prevention.
